Yay, an update! You made me snicker while reading all of this. I really like their conversation now that they're not as shy as before. In truth, I'm more anxious to get to see more of Ron vs. Draco, but this is also alright.

OCD-ish Scorpius is quite the trend isn't it? He's asking for it, I suppose.

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed this. I love writing dialogue for them -- they're both such intelligent people (and Rose has her dad's sense of humor), they have such stimulating conversations.

Is OCD!Scorpius a trend? Well, it's bound to be better than sex god!Scorpius.

Thanks for the review!

Thanks for updating!!

Thanks! I've already written about 850 words for chapter 7, so hopefully it won't be too lng of a wait. :)

I loved all of the scenes here, Rose freaking out over her hair and what to wear, which is very typical of teenagers. And I loved the Apparating lesson at the end. I like how you've characterized Scorpius and Rose here, with very strong, distinct personalities. Absolutely amazing chapter and I hope I won't have to wait quite as long for the next one, but do take your time.

It'll be interesting to see how the meal goes with Ron and Scorpius at the table.

Thank you! Rose might not be a vain prisspot, but Scorpius isn't just any boy. I've so enjoyed watching their personalities take shape as the story unfolds -- Rose in particular, because there are an infinite number of combinations of her parents' character traits.

I'm well into chapter 7, so if all goes well it won't be too long before an update.

Thanks for the review!

I love the awkwardness and the dialogue and *gah* just their interaction. I love it I love it Iloveit. ♥

*points to icon* Rose and Ron are so alike. XD

[magstopia]

*loves* Ron and Rose are *so* much alike. :-)

If you think you loved this chapter...

Ah no! Too short! Too short!

What a wonderful update. I so love how you're writing Rose and Scorpius. As someone who started dating her husband in junior year of HS, I still remember those oh so anxious moments of trying to be 'perfectly put together' for our dates together.

I'm so glad you got over your writer's block with this story, and I can't wait to read what happens next. Great job!

Sorry, I know! I promise to try to make the next one longer. :-)
